Okay, so today I wanted to make one of those “Michael Jackson Pointing” memes. You know, the ones where he’s pointing dramatically at something, usually with some funny text?

First, I needed to find the right picture. I spent a good while just browsing Google Images, searching for “Michael Jackson pointing”. There are a bunch of options, but I wanted one where he’s really giving it his all, you know, super intense.
Finding the Perfect MJ Pose
- I looked for one with a clear background.
- I wanted his hand to be really prominent.
- I needed that classic MJ energy!
Eventually, I found the perfect one! It was from one of his concerts, mid-performance, looking super passionate. I saved the image to my computer.
Adding the Text (The Funny Part)
Next up, I needed some software to add the text. I just used a free online meme generator, nothing fancy. I’m no Photoshop expert, so I needed something simple.
I uploaded the picture I saved. Then came the hard part – deciding what the text should be! I spent a ridiculous amount of time trying out different phrases. I wanted something relatable, you know?
After a lot of trial and error (and some giggling to myself), I finally settled on the text. I chose a bold, white font so it would stand out, and I played around with the positioning until it looked just right.

Once I was happy with it, I downloaded the finished meme. Boom! Done. It wasn’t rocket science, but it was a fun little project, and it definitely made me laugh.
And that is what I did, my very own “Michael Jackson Pointing Meme” is done, it’s really an interesting practice!
